Quote: Mrs Barista "A bit like Hull FC then. Unlike the vast majority RL clubs, our margin has a + in front of it. If we're going to use a private business analogy, that is any CEO's number one KPI.
Won't be for long though when crowds start to fall due to pish poor performances

You are quick to brand people as idiots pal. Completely failing to understand the earlier poster made you look like one. That's all.

Quote: knockersbumpMKII "Yes, relatively low profit food sales where we are the food provision contractor. I used it as an example to show that Rule need not have been a big cheese in RL previously to have the ability to smooth out/improve the operation. The club has a £5M turnover, it's not a massive amount to him I would imagine coming from a business/finance background.
As I said it's not the amount of money but about improving communication (internally & externally), organising, making changes for the good & so on.

However if that cannot be translated into a more successful business in the most important aspect (for us fans success on the field) then a lot of the positive changes & stability financially are overlooked.'"


You miss the point completely. To my knowledge, rule has never run any company, let alone one turning over a not insubstantial amount, employing dozens of people. What exactly is his business/finance background?

I've no idea, what multi-million pound business have you run so as to be equipped to comment?

I don't like the guy, but the club a re successful as an operation, what do you want Rule to do about the fact that players had coaching has let us down?

The majority of your posts would fall into that category, as indeed the one above shows. You are a joke.

I'm co-director of a business turning over in excess of £1m.

I'm not having a go at rule per se, merely using his appointment as an example of the club's short sightedness in it's senior appointments. rule has also overseen thackerygate, reardongate and now blundersidegate.

Name of company, just so we can coroborate your story?

And I don't think being a co-director of a business turning over £1m is really comparabled to beig the head of a sports business turnning over in excess of £5m are comparable.

Not interested in posting my personal business on here, and nor am I saying that I'd be any better that rule at running Hull FC (If I have said that then please tell me where), merely saying that he wasn't the right appointment for a club the size of Hull FC

So, bsically, you are full of it? No problem, you're not on your own.

So, which bit of getting the A licence, having increased sponsorship, attracted big name players (even if they fell foul of immigration rules) would you change, and who would you have in the job?

Don't know who I'd have in the job as it's not my position to search out the right person. Without a detailed knowledge of the goings on inside the club it's difficult to know what I'd change
